MasterCase Pro 5 EATX compatibility?

[Inception9269]

So for the future build I plan on doing I decided I will most likely go with a Mastercase pro 5. When it comes to the build I plan on doing a black/red MSI theme. One thing about that is for internet there's literally no way at all for me to get something wired, so I have to use wifi, I use this thing http://pcpartpicker.com/part/tp-link-wireless-network-card-tlwdn4800 in my current build, and it works just fine, but it's ugly ass hell, especially since I have a windowed case.

 

I don't want something like that sticking out so my only solution that I can think of (besides getting a slow ass USB wifi adapter) is to get a motherboard that has built in wifi. My next build will most likely be with a 5820k (unless skylake gets a cpu stronger than the 6700k). The only MSI X99 motherboards with built in wifi adapters are EATX ones. With an EATX motherboard selected the mastercase doesn't show up when I search for it. So does that mean the Mastercase doesn't support it?

 

I really like MSI, it being my go to brand. If Mastercase isn't going to work would i be better off going to a different case (which I don't really want to, I have my mind set on the Mastercase) or should I look into another motherboard brand for a normal ATX motherboard? In which case my next choice might be Asus if they have a board that fits my build theme. And since I like to match gpu and mobo brands, how well is Asus Strix? I've heard they have hotter temps than other cards.

Regarding the last paragraph, I looked into it and there's no ATX black/red x99 motherboards that have built in wifi.

Isn't powerline an option?

I'm using this personally: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833320181&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Network+-+Wireless+Adapters-_-N82E16833320181&gclid=CjwKEAiA9JW2BRDxtaq2ruDg22oSJACgtTxcdX2629uDVTxcHykSr53nCMamL9C-uw0bJvJ7eCSzRhoC_NTw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

 

Works beautifully, with AC too. It's a bit pricey but judging from your choice in components budget isn't much a problem, and the heatsink on it is red.

Basically it's a network connection using your electrical wiring. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-line_communication

That does look like a good one in terms of design, with that at least it would match the colors, instead of the ugly ass green board my current one has. Might paint the silver metal part black maybe.

 

As for the thing about prices, it isn't really a matter of me wanting to spend close to $400 on a motherboard, the one I initially wanted to get is this one http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-x99agaming7 but i want a better wifi solution.

that does look like it would be good, unfortunately with my internet setup anything involving an ethernet cord is a no go. Where I live there's literally no good internet provider, I live in kind of rural area so no ISP will run to here. My internet being limited to either wireless on shitty satellite. I bought a grandfathered verizon hotspot so I have unlimited data with speeds around 25-40mb down, 10-20up

Depending on if I hear any other suggestions here, this post would probably be the solution to my problem.

I found a solution to my problem. People in my house were having trouble with the wifi not going far enough so I bought a wifi extender, however they decided it was no longer needed so I kept it. It has an ethernet port so I was curious if it could be used as an output (wasn't sure if it was made to be connected to the internet router) but apparently I can use it as an output. So i have it set up next to my pc and wifi hotspot, the wifi going to the extender and from the extender ethernet to my pc and it works perfectly. In addition to that I think my latency is faster
